February 20, 2018 How To Go From Zero To A Multi Million Dollar Business In 20 Years
Craig Wachholz never dreamt of becoming an Entrepreneur. He only wanted to be a musician and play his guitar. But after falling in love with the charismatic and power surfing woman, Brenda Miley, Craig co-founded and became the marketing force behind the iconic surf school Let's Go Surfing. He refers to himself as the accidental entrepreneur "we didn't think let's go out there and run a business and make money. We were bumming around on the beach. We thought let's teach girls and kids how to surf. And then it began from the back of a combie van". Co-founding Let's Go Surfing with Brenda set him off on the business path wheeling and dealing with the mighty and powerful leaders of Tourism Australia. Twenty years ago there was no such thing as surfing tourism. But Craig changed all this by lobbying Tourism Australia to dedicate resources into surfing. "First we showed up to the meetings at Tourism Australia in suits. We lobbied and lobbied. Then once we won them over with our charm, we took off the suits mask and showed up in boards, thongs and rashies! It was controversial at the time but they let us in. Now surfing has its own division and budget at Tourism Australia" Craig has good honest to goodness advice for those who want to grow their small business:
1. You got to look at your business like surfing. In business, there's never a perfect day. Things are always changing. Every time you go out for a wave it's never a perfect wave. You get smashed with a big set and if you want to enjoy the incredible moment where you can stand on a wave and ride it to the shore, you have to work your butt off to get the perfect wave. That's the same with business, if you want to enjoy the fruits of the business you need to work hard and bounce back when you fall.
2. You need to surround yourself with a cheer squad - your partner, employees, accountant, business mentor, financial adviser.
3. You need to keep one eye on the sales and one eye on the costs. It won't work if you take your eyes off both or one of them. 4. There is no point making millions and you leave relationships behind. Look after your employees and the people who support your business and balance your life between business and family. Craig shares that he feels guilty when he leaves his family for work. This guilt is not only the woman's domain. But he tries to include his 14 year old daughter with their business, attending trade shows and Enjoy listening to an amazing man who loves his business, surfing, music and his family. What more would you want?

October 23, 2017 How To Win At Life Without Losing The Plot - Interview With Angela Heise
Since the age of sixteen, Angela Heise spent the past four decades learning about emotional intelligence. What started as a curious personal learning experience became a lifelong journey of study and practice of this work with thousands of people over the past 22 years. Her passion for learning to improve our human condition is now leading her towards taking her work from the corporate world to the public. She wants the world to know how we can manage our emotions, especially the "negative angry frustrated" ones in a more productive way. She believes that the source of our suffering is due to our inability to deal with those emotions in a productive manner. Using tools and practices that Angela developed over the years to deal with these emotions allow us to rise above our human condition and become more peaceful within ourselves. Angela will be running her public seminars in Brisbane 28-29 October 2017 and Sydney 18-19 November 2017.

October 10, 2017 The 10 Year Plan From Employee To Millionaire - Interview With Chris Popoff
Chris Popoff's CV ticks all the boxes of engineer turned entrepreneur and accredited investor. His career as an oil and gas engineer working for some of Canada's well-known energy companies led him to the world of finance and private equity investing. Working out financial models and discounted cash flow forecasts for big engineering projects paved the way for his next venture into finance which allowed him to reach his "enough money number" and live a financially comfortable lifestyle. He now helps young entrepreneurs ready to quit their corporate jobs to fast track their financial independence by buying established profitable businesses from soon to be retirees. His business "My First Seven" provides A-Z sourcing, matching, coaching and financing well run established businesses that young entrepreneurs can buy over a 5 year period to secure their "first seven figures" using a combination of bank business loan, private equity funding, and vendor finance. Instead of building up a startup that will take years to take off, Chris subscribes to fast-tracking your success through acquisition. He believes this is a win-win business model that allows business owners nearing their retirement to sell their business to the next generation of Millenials so they also secure their retirement and keep these companies and the economy going.
"Who says you can't be a millionaire while you're still young enough to enjoy it?" Chris Popoff can show you how. You can reach him by emailing [email protected]. Chris also hosts his own podcast My First Seven. Subscribe to this podcast and learn more.
But that's not all. Chris is not only an engineer and advisor. He is an advocate for eradicating energy poverty to 2 billion people on the planet. He believes we don't need to have a chasm between those with too much energy and those with not much. His energy company Terrestrial Energy aims at providing an alternative source of energy in nuclear technology. The company's proprietary Advanced Reactor technology is called Integral Molten Salt Reactor technology ("IMSR®" technology). It will revolutionise the way we use nuclear energy.
And Chris is only 35 years old! He is a wise old soul whom I enjoyed talking with about life, family, connecting, win-win solutions as well as talking about finance, business and eradicating energy poverty around the world. This Millenial is the embodiment of wisdom, intelligence, and global citizenship. He forged his path to happiness by taking control of his finances, building his enterprise as well as co-founding a company whose vision is to balance the energy haves with the have-nots.
